Notes

Update 6 January 2019This is a completely new upload of all the lectures to make it consistent with the Vanderbilt course, EECE 4353 Image Processing, Fall Semester 2018. Much new information has been added.Please note that these lectures are sets of slides, not videos. I made them using Matlab, Photoshop, Illustrator, Powerpoint, and Acrobat. Also I have not included the assignments since they are the source of academic credit for the Vanderbilt Course, EECE 4253, and I do not want example solutions to be available.IMPORTANT: If you do not have the Design Science MathType fonts installed on your computer, the Powerpoint files will not display correctly. For some bizarre and completely unexplained reason, Powerpoint will not embed these fonts. You can download an installer for these fonts from the other files section of this page. Once you download it, double click on the executable to load the fonts. This works for windows machines only.

Much new information has been added.Please note that these lectures are sets of slides, not videos. I made them using Matlab, Photoshop, Illustrator, Powerpoint, and Acrobat.

They areEECE_4353_01_IntroEECE_4353_02_DigitalImagesAndMatlabEECE_4353_03a_ImageHistogramsEECE_4353_03b_PointProcessingEECE_4353_04_ColorPerceptionMy uploads were in powerpoint (.pptx) and portable document format (.pdf) files. Vanderbilt changed it's course numbering scheme this year. The new course number for Image Processing is 4353 for the undergraduate course and 5353 for the graduate version. The lectures are the same for both. They are all labeled 4353. Over the semester I'll be updating the lectures here as I complete them. Also note that I've split lecture 3 into 2 parts. I've done the same for #5, which I will be updating here soon.I've also uploaded a short video file, ColorHistogram3D.mp4. This is included in both the pdf and pptx of lecture 3a, but it might not show up in the derived formats, so you can download it here.-----Update 27 August 2015As a new semester starts at Vanderbilt, I'll be updating the lecture slides here as I use them there. The course numbering system has changed. This course is now EECE 4253 Image Processing. Also It looks like the format here on the archive has changed. To download the lecture slides click on the "show all" link to the right. I uploaded the ppt, pptx, and pdf format files. It looks like they have been made available in other formats, too. If you download one of these other file types and it doesn't look quite right, try one of my originals. Please note that these lectures are sets of slides, not videos. I made them using Matlab, Photoshop, Illustrator, Powerpoint, and Acrobat. Also I have not included the assignments since they are the source of academic credit for the Vanderbilt Course, EECE 4253, and I do not want example solutions to be available.IMPORTANT: If you do not have the Design Science MathType fonts installed on your computer, the Powerpoint files will not display correctly.

I've added 18 new slides to more thoroughly cover Hue, Saturation and Value (HSV) representation of color. In particular, the lecture now includes fast methods for computation of HSV. They are approximate but very fast. More updates to come; next will be the Fourier Lecture,-----Update 9 September 2014Two slides on intensity scaling have been added to lecture 2, Digital Images and Matlab. I have added new material to lecture 3 and divided it into two parts. Lecture 3a Image Histograms, contains several new examples and includes more detailed presentations on luminance and value images and on probability distribtutions. Lecture 3b Point Processing now includes a section on image restoration through histogram matching. I have included in Lecture 4, Color Perception, more information on the space-variant retinal transformation and the log-polar transform.-----About the 11 March 2013 Update: There was an error in the Fourier Transform lecture (No. 6). The calculation of the wavelength of a Fourier component from its position on the Fourier plane was incorrect. That has been corrected. Please download the latest version.-----About the Fall 2011 Updates: I will be uploading new versions of all the lectures as the Fall Semester progresses so that all the lectures are updated by mid December. As of 1 October 2011 Lectures 1-7 have been updated.-----About the 28 April 2008 Update: I recompiled the pdf files from the ppt files (the originals) and made sure that all the fonts were embedded and that the start-in-full-screen mode was off. This may solve the problem some folks were having with the PDF files. Please let me know if they do not work for you. Also, I retitled the lectures so that they would include the file type and appear in order and I modified the above introduction to, I hope, better explain the contents of this archive. (Thanks to users LizBurl and d012560c for alerting me to the pdf problems!)-----About the 10 April 2008 Update: Many of the lecture files have been revised, mainly to correct typos and various small errors. Some new material has been added as well.Changes:Lecture 1 Intro: Included 3 slides on forensic analysis.Lecture 2 Digital Images: Included four slides on colormapping and two on image scrambling.Lecture 3 Point Processing: Added to explanations on slide 16.Lecture 4 Color Perception: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 5 Color Correction: Added 19 slides on the color cube and on RGB vs HSV representation.Lecture 6 Fourier Transform: Reversed the order of slides 85 and 86.Lecture 7 Convolution: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 8 Frequency Filtering: Added slide on on ideal bandpass filter.Lecture 9 Sharpening: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 10 Pixelization, Quantization: Added 12 slides on steganography (hiding one picture in another.)Lecture 11 Sampling, Aliasing: Minor format changes.Lecture 12 Resampling: Errors corrected on pp 34 & 108, 9 pages of examples added.Lecture 13 Rotating: Added seven slides on interpolation and warping.Lecture 14 Uncorrelated Noise: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 15 Correlated Noise: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 16 Median Filters: No changes other than date from 2006 to 2007.Lecture 17 Binary Morphology: Slide 18 corrected. New slide (49) added. Minor changes (clarifications) made to 25 other slides.Lecture 18 Grayscale Morphology: New slide (43) added.-----6 July 2007: I've included powerpoint (.ppt) format versions of all the lectures.-----1 June 2007: I have been careful to include the CC attribution-noncommercial license in each file and a (cc) on each slide. This is, IMHO, a pretty good set of lectures. They are highly graphical (lots of pictures) I would like other to make use of them.
